    Preparation Steps

    1

    Wash the chicken breast fillets and cut them into thin strips. Season with salt and pepper, and set aside.

    2

    Thoroughly rinse the jasmine rice in cold water. Cook according to the package instructions, typically with twice the amount of water, simmering covered.

    3

    Prepare the vegetables: cut the bell peppers, zucchini, and carrots into thin strips. Dice the onion, mince the garlic and ginger, and slice the chili pepper.

    4

    Heat the oil in a large skillet or wok. Add the chicken strips and sauté until golden brown, about 5-6 minutes. Remove and set aside.

    5

    In the same skillet, sauté the onion and garlic for 2-3 minutes, then add the ginger and chili pepper. Cook, stirring, for another 2 minutes.

    6

    Add the bell peppers, carrots, and zucchini, and cook for 5-6 minutes, until the vegetables are slightly tender but still crisp.

    7

    Pour in the coconut milk and soy sauce, then squeeze in the lime juice. Mix well and cook for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.

    8

    Return the chicken to the skillet, toss with the sauce, and cook for another 3 minutes, until the chicken is cooked through.

    9

    Serve the chicken and vegetable stir-fry over the cooked jasmine rice and garnish with fresh cilantro.
